UO Swimmers
Meet Beavers
In Men's Pool
The Beavers of Oregon State
Invade Oregon’s men’s pool this
Saturday at 2 p.m. for a return
match aaginst Coach John Bor
chardt’s swimming contingent.
In the Inst meeting at Corvallis,
OSC whipped the Ducks, 52-31.
Borchardt expects a much
••loser contest this weekend, and
stated that It will undoubtedly
offer more thrills.
Race l/inkn Close
Observers will look for one of
the closest races when Dick
Slawson of the Slaters and Ore
gon’s Harry Fuller meet In the
220 and 440 freestyles. So far
Stawson has recorded the better
time In the 440 5:18.5 but
Fuller, whose best In competition
mark Is 5:28.4, has not yet per
formed tinder any pressure.
Two close ones, rated as toss
ups are the 60 and the 100 yard
freestyles, where John Ones* and
the Ducks' Howard Hedlnger are
the chief contenders. At their
last meeting. Onexs captured
the longer of the two, while Hed
lnger won the 60-yarder.
Matsushima Rated High
Borchardt also looks for a
good performance from Yoji
Matsushima, who nearly nosed
out his teammate Fuller In the
220 last Saturday. He is also
highly considered in the 440
freestyle.
Up to now, Hedlnger is unde
feated In the 60-yard free style,
and Fuller Is yet to be beaten in
th- 440.
Borchardt commented that
since this is the last home meet
for the Oregon tankmen, this
Ain also be the last chance for
Duck rooters to watch the squad
perform.

Workouts Begin
For Baseballers
With a strong nucleus back
from last year's Pacific Coast
conference and Far West cham
pions, Oregon's baseball team
will head into the 1955 season
as the team to beat on the Pa
cific slope.
Coach Don Kirsch has a strong
32-game schedule lined up, in
cluding a spring vacation series
in California. The Ducks open the
season against Stanford March
21-22, play San Jose State March
23-25, and California the 26th.
Besides the regular 16-game
Northern Division schedule,
there ure games against Lln
fleld, Lews and Clark, Port
land university, and possibly
the Salem Senators and the
Eugene Emeralds.
At present there is a squad of
35 players working out, 12 of
which are lettcrmen. The rest of
the team is made up of non
lettermen, sophomores, und trans
fers.
Unbeaten Teams
Get Fourth Wins
Phi Kappa Sigma and Theta
Chi kept their IM bowling rec
ords clean Tuesday night as they
stopped Tau Kappa Epsilon and
Campbell club, respectively. Both
own 4-0 records. The Phi Kap's
trounced the Teke's, 574-472,
while Theta Chi edged the Club
bers, 566-622.
The other Tuesday action, Phi
Kappa Psi squeaked past Delta
Upsilon, 459-456, and Kappa
Sigma tripped Sigma Alpha Ep
silon, 502-440.
Pitchers and catchers have
been woiking out for some time.
Infielders and outfielders re
ported for first practice Feb. 8.
Workouts are being held
three times weekly — Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday — in
the unfinished area of the PE
building. Practices have been
confined to playing catch and
hitting In the batting cages.
Kirsch, in his eighth year as
head coach, admits that prospects
are generally good, but is wor
ried over the lack of depth in
pitching.
"The league is very tough this
year, with any one of four teams
capable of winning the champion
ship," the Oregon coach says.
"OSC is especially strong, with
most of their regulars back.
Washington will be tough, with
semi-pro star, Monte Geiger up
from the Frosh. Buck Bailey’s
Washington State team will again
have good pitching, but Idaho is
somewhat of an unknown quan
tity and will have to strengthen
considerably to be a contender."
Lettermen from last year and
top contenders for their posi
tions include Neal Marlett,
catcher; Dick Schlosstein, first
base; Jim Johnson, second
base; Pete Williams, third
base; and John Keller, short
stop.
Outfielders are George Shaw,
an all-American candidate, Jerry
Ross, Bernie Averill, and Bob
Wagner. Pitchers include all dis
trict 8 choice Norm Forbes and
lefthander Bill Garner.
Duck Grapplers
Meet Vikings
On PSC Mats
Oregon's varsity wrestlers jour
ney to Portland today to tangle
with Portland State College at
8 tonight. In previous action the
Ducks and the Viks fought to an
18-18 deadlock.
The Ducks will be trying for
their third win of the season af
ter absorbing consecutive beat
ings from a well-balanced OSC
squad, but they will be handi
capped without the services of
Roy Schlesser in the 123-lb. di
vision. Schlesser, a Pacific Coast
intercollegiate champion, will be
out of action for the remainder of
the season because of a knee in
jury suffered in last Saturday’s
scuffle with the Beavers.
Sehlesser’s I-oss Hurts
In Oregon's previous tussle
with with the Vikings, Schlesser
accounted for five of the Duck's
eighteen pointo. Although they
have improved in several of the
weight classes the five points for
feited in the first match will be
a detriment for the Ducks.
In the 130-lb. division Oregon’s
Darrell Klampc will battle
against Larry Schless or Paul
Bailey of the Vikings. In the
next weight class the Ducks' Bob
Williams will be trying to climb
back into the winners circle after
two defeats at the hands of Or
ville Hwindler of the Beavers.
Williams will face Dick DeChaine
of the PSC squad.
N'wland Points for Fourth
Dave Newland, a promising
sophomore grappler will face
Harvey Cooper of the Viks. New
land will be shooting for his
fourth win of the season after
being defeated by PCC champ
Art Keith of the Beavers.
In the 157-lb. class Boland Wil
son will probably face Jack Mc
Elroy who previously edged Wil
son by one point. At 167, Coach
Bill Hammer has two possible
wrestlers to face the Vikings:
Either sophomore Jack Hendrick
son or John Woyai. will take on
Buzz Wheatley.
In the 177-lb. match Ken Kesey
will be trying for his fourth
straight victory when he wrestles
Don Turner of the Viks. In the
last match Oregon's Keith Bark
er will be trying for his first
win of the season when he tangles
with Darrold Farr of the PSC
club.
After a brief practice Friday
the Ducks resume action Satur
day against Lewis and Clark in
Portland.

Loscutoff Keeps Lead
In ND Scoring Race
•urn Mim'uion josi some ground ,
since last week in seeking the
Northern Division’s scoring title,
but the big Oregon forward still
holds the lead with only four
games to be played.
The Ducks' ace rebounder and |
point-maker scored 36 points in
a two-game series against Idaho
last weekend to boast a 19.4 av- j
erage after 12 conference games.
Washington Center Dean Par- j
sons knocked in 47 against
Washington State to bring his
average up to 184 points-per
game, while Swede Halbrook of
ND champion Oregon State
poured in 62 points against Idaho
Monday and Tuesday to make
the scoring race a four-way af
fair.
Although breaking the North
ern Division record for free !■
throws with 17 scored Saturday
against Washington, WSC's Ron
Bennink slipped to third place
from his runner-up spot of last
week. The pint-sized Cougar
j forward now is a good bet t«
! break Parson’s conference rec
! ord of 115 free throws in One
season, set last year. Bennink
has 104 with three games to play.
The first ten remains the same
as last week in scoring, with the
drop of Bennink, and Halbrook’s
rush for the lead the only sig
nificant changes. The only other
enange saw Idahos Jay Buhler
moving past WSC's Bill Rehder
into sixth place in the race after
collecting 53 points in the Vandal
invasion of the Willamette Val
ley.
In departments other than
point-making, Loscutoff con
tinues to lead in rebounds by a
big margin. He has 216 compared
to Halbrook’s runnerup 159 to
tal. Loscutoff broke the con
ference record of swipes in a
single game last Saturday with
29, but Halbrook established a
new high two nights in a row
against Idaho, 32 Monday and
36 Tuesday.
Idaho’s Bill Bauscher is the
most accurate shot from the
free throw line while WSC’s A1
Perry has only nine fouls in the
Cougars’ 13 games. Parsons is
shooting .486 from the field to
lead that department.
